Hi Bob,
It takes the human player about 1 or 2 seconds on average(if he is fast) to
initiate his move on the board, but the computer don`t lose any time at all
while in book and also faster to initiate all his other moves than a human can,
so the player should get compensation for this based on how many average book
moves are made in a game plus several additional seconds for the game to
compensate him, just my opinion! What is your opinion on this and would it even
matter except for maybe a few games where there would be a time factor?
Best regards,
Terry
